As a Senior DFT - Silicon Validation Engineer on the Design-for-Test Engineering team, you will drive end-to-end DFT architecture and methodologies to accelerate post-silicon bring up and characterization for complex semiconductor chips. You will collaborate with multi-functional teams to define next-generation test strategies for ATE across the product roadmap while leading early silicon validation for SoCs. Your daily responsibilities include planning from architecture and development, performing chip validation on ATE, debugging test content, and analyzing silicon behavior under various operating conditions to identify failure root causes and ensure a strong production ramp. Required expertise includes silicon debug, bring-up, and productization of DFT features. You should possess skills in Perl, Python, or Tcl, along with knowledge of high-speed protocols, semiconductor process technology, and industry-standard DFT tools to solve challenges in advanced semiconductor technologies.
